Nancy Kerr 2010
James Fagan said on the 10th anniversary listening party of Twice Reflected Sun that this one's fun, has a bit of an Americana feel. Kerr said she always thinks of Emily Smith because of her recording of it.
Nancy Kerr & James Fagan: https://kerrfagan.bandcamp.com/track/rammed-earth
We could walk in the woods where we all are still children
In the darkness where folly is free
But the shadows must flee and like lizards they scatter
When you throw your bright light upon me
Chorus:
For rammed earth and cool walls
Shelter our hearts and counter our faults
And your wedgewood eyes strip me down
And teach me the hardest craft of all
You can show me a bird with the wings of an angel
And it shares in my summer and spring
For when heads they hang heavy with thoughts’ gravitation
We can switch on our nature and sing
So build me a house from the bones of the dragon
And set it with blood and with lye
For I hear by the songs that you teach to your children
We are made of the same you and I
